Thread: Samurai 7

Grumble Grumble Grumble

Of the best animated sword fights that I've seen, the best ones are in 'Samurai 7' and 'Jubei-chan 2' and for 'bushido code' samurai films, there are good reasons why Kurosawa became the first Japanese director to gain world wide fame in the movie industry. And GONZO Studios spent three times the normal anime budget for 'Samurai 7' as part of their 10 year aniversery series productions...

Samurai Gun on the other hand, is a series that refuses to let historical accuracy get in the way of telling a story. The character designs for the series reminds me of something that might have come out of Gigantor and Giant Robo, with limited detail.

Whoa...........I see. Then, Samurai Gun sucks bigtime. As I said I have only seen the first three episodes..........and I thought it was Ok, but not crap. Maybe an eight for the rating was too much. Sorry if I have misled you, so take the word of LenMiyata-garu and chiefblackhammer. They know better.

It is all personal preference, just cause I don't like it doesn't mean someone else won't. I just offered my opinion and some links to other information about the series.

I understand, dude. Thank you..........but mine was just a one dude's opinion. Hearing it from you and LenMiyata-garu, it must be true, but I understand that one has to see it with their own eyes to judge something.

So basicly Samurai Gun is not worth my money but Samurai 7 can stand up to kenshin in some ways.

Hey hey, then again, if you ARE interested in sword fighting or samurai stuff, then yeah go with Samurai 7. (I have seen the first 2 episodes but I dunno, it got me alil bored).

Then there's Jubei Chan 2. I seriously love the fighting sequence and art work in that anime. Although, I'm not quite fond of the comedy cause... well it kind of annoys me. However, that is because I saw it dubbed with the english voice cast and so on and so forth. Um. About Samurai Gun, you know I was interested in that series, but after hearing alot of bad reviews (and not just here), I kind of turn my head away whenever I see any Samurai Gun dvd's.

Hey there's also Samurai Champloo. ^-^

well if you haven't seen samurai 7 your nuts, well the first 2 volumes that are out any way. Its one of the best animes I've seen, you gota check it out. I also liked samurai gun, its true its not a show stopper but its still worth watching. Jubei Chan 2 is also very good.
